not only is the machine a copy, the wording in the ad is a copy.
I have seen the same phrasing in other fake machine sellers ads.
this one looks pretty fresh.... look how clean the aluminum is on the back side of the castings shown in the inside cabinet photo.
also, check out that ultra-funky mechanism hold down.

This one is really BAD. Yes, love that mech-holder.

He has it posted on Craigslist Los Angeles and he was asking $3995.00 and the write up was different. I wrote him on his Craigslists ad and told him. He has now posted a updated or new ad on craigslist asking 2575.00 and he rewrote the entire description part. Now I see it is on Ebay.
He is well aware of what he has

what amazes me about the repro's, and, no one ever brings up, is the fact that in all but a few states, due to age, the repro's are illegal.
maybe if a few people got busted with illegal machines, people would stop selling, and, if the the people making them got busted, it would cut down on the supply.
I believe those manufacturing them would be open for federal charges.
it would definitely be for the benefit of our hobby.
